    Tracking problems

    Canting could certainly do that although it would have to be significant at 200 yards. I️ am asking if it is technically possible for the erector to stick or jump in such a way to induce an unwanted change in windage when making an elevation adjustment. This particular scope certainly seems to...

    Tracking problems

    This one is a cds so naturally you would assume it would track. Has anyone seen what appears to be a sideways or windage jump when adjusting elevation?

    Tracking problems

    So were we. My dad would roll over in his grave at the thought of touching a scope. Outfitter told us to prep for up to 600 so we are trying a new sport. Trust me when get back to the Ozarks it will be left alone.

    Tracking problems

    This scope would be ideal for a max point blank range setup to zero and not dial.

    My old friend down the road said you should always tap the side of scope on every adjustment. I️ suppose he is right on this and the previous VX3 that was on this same rifle. This one is going back to Leupold for service. Unfortunately this apparently just cost me $1299 for an SHV.

    Tracking problems

    Just rechecked my 200 yd zero before a longer range session. Found it about .8” low (group was .75” or .38 moa) so dialed up 2 clicks and put it in the case. Drove to my farm and set up at 535. Dialed in 8.6 moa and hit way high. Minus 2 clicks way high, minus two more still high, minus 2 more...

    Vote. Favorite caliber for whitetail deer

    7mm-08 has proven to be a perfect match for whitetail. Near instant kills as opposed to 7 mm rem mag which often require a short track.

    Vortex G4 experience

    Anybody have specific experience with the G4 reticle in the field. My biggest concern is losing the small center dark in low light. Planning for 500 yard ek.
